I am 77. In june I lost my wife due to alzheimers. I have been her primary caregiver since 2016 and before. I sat with her as she took her last breath. Caretaking was hard and very stressful. My own health has been compromised.
I worry mostly about my animals. Who will care for them if I go? For a long time I didnt see myself as old. I worked at a 2y college as a librarian. So I was around young people allot just starting out in life. But now I feel old.
